🌍The future of entrepreneurship is social impact.

Today’s most compelling founders are not only asking, β€œHow do we build something profitable?” They are also asking, β€œHow do we build something that improves lives, strengthens communities, and creates sustainable value?”

That is why we are honored to welcome Gayle Northrop, Adjunct Assistant Professor and Faculty Advisor at the Center for Impact at UCLA Anderson School of Management, as our keynote speaker for FOUNDERS: Future of Entrepreneurship Conference & Pitch Competition.

🎀 Gayle will deliver the keynote address:
β€œEmbedding Social Impact in Entrepreneurship”

Her work in global social impact education includes UCLA Anderson’s Global Social Impact Consulting work with organizations in East Africa, including Project Mercy in Ethiopia β€” a powerful example of how business education, consulting, and community-centered impact can come together.

πŸ’‘ As impact investing, purpose-driven leadership, and socially conscious business models continue to grow, the future belongs to entrepreneurs who can build ventures that are both sustainable and meaningful.

Join us for an inspiring morning of entrepreneurship, social impact, community, and vision.
